NJ Couple Charged After 18-Year-Old Escapes Years of Captivity, Abuse
Brenda Spencer and Branndon Mosley, of Gloucester Township, New Jersey, were arrested and charged with kidnapping and multiple counts of aggravated assault, endangering the welfare of a child, and weapons offenses. The charges stem from the alleged seven-year abuse of their 18-year-old daughter/stepdaughter, who escaped on May 8th and reported being confined to a dog crate, a padlocked bathroom, and a bare room with a bucket for a toilet. Mosley faces additional charges of sexual assault. The investigation revealed squalid living conditions in the home, also housing a 13-year-old child who was also removed from school years prior.
